Fishfolks,

      I'm a graduate student and several of us have been debating which mechani
sms are used by fish to detect salinity.  How do fish detect salinity?  Which s
enses are used in this detection?  Is this detection immediate?  If there is an
yone out there who has insight on the topic your response would be deeply appre
ciated.  Thanks in Advance!
